Resources for Technical Analysis?
Hi All, I've been trading for about a year and a half, and I'll be honest its been a slow process with alot of losing. I've finally found the discipline needed for trading and in the past 4 months, I have been successful in risk management, position sizing, proper trade management, documentation and more. As a result, I've started seeing small, very consistent successes (1.5 - 2R every other trading day). My parents have taken notice and want to now learn Trading. I only have two issues. 1) I work in a demanding industry which prevents me from teaching them and 2) They don't exactly respect me. My dad sees me as lazy and my mom has historically been used to bullying people, myself included to get whatever she wants - she's one of those people with absurd expectations and made my life very stressful over the past 1.5 years because trading was a "waste of my time". She immediately expected me to make big money. Now they both want me to teach them and I feel really out of my depths here. My dad is a big reader so giving him books on technical analysis will help me there. I've ready Mark Minervini's *How to Trade like stock market wizard*, and recommended that to him. Outside of that, I am not a big reader so I'm not sure what to recommend. I want to avoid recommending people with questionable histories because I obviously don't want them to make bad decisions. With my mom, any resource recommendations on youtube would be appreciated. I don't mind spending some extra time with her on weekends because I think frankly she needs it. I'm in a real bind here and I'm not sure where to start. I know I need to temper their expectations because they both see the high $$ amounts and with the market doing well, its really tempting them - In reality they haven't seen the lows and the points where you feel like giving up. Not to mention they both have well established careers, so I cannot afford for them to throw that away on trading. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!5
